# FreeLLMAPI

> Self-hosted gateway that pools the free tiers of 34 LLM providers (635 free model endpoints, about 7.4B tokens a month) behind one OpenAI-compatible /v1 endpoint plus an Anthropic Messages route, with smart routing and automatic failover when a limit runs out, so Claude Code can run on free models (MIT, 45k stars).
